Tag Archive | Republican Candidate

The world of Republican politics differs greatly from the world of Democrat politics, primarily because Republicans and Democrats really do live and think differently from one another. On the one hand, you have a Democrat Party that marches in lock step, democrat voters who will vote for any candidate so long as they are running […]

Ted Cruz is the most polished and prepared Republican Candidate running for President in the GOP field. Despite being utterly ignored in the debates, his responses and temperament have been flawlessly executed. His campaign is carefully crafted, consistent, and relevant. His record of fighting for Conservative and Constitutional values and policy is unrivaled amongst his […]

Dear lord. This is better than a Soap Opera. If you don’t listen to the John Fredericks radio show, you missed it.

I had the honor to speak with Anthony Riedel, the Republican Candidate challenging the establishment’s representative Rob Whittman in Virginia’s historic First District. Now, I’m not a professional reporter or a great interviewer. The questions I asked were quite selfish and self-serving since, as a King George resident, Mr. Riedel could be my representative. Before […]

I am hearing from some friends via email and Facebook that there is a move afoot to disallow any voters that have supported a non-Republican candidate running against a Republican Candidate in the last 4 years. Once again, the slaters are looking to cheat the system. According to the Republican Party Plan : Article 1 […]

There is an email from Susan Stimpson the former Republican Candidate for Lt. Governor in Virginia circulating concerning the Republican’s plan to expand the ObamaCare Medicaid program in the Commonwealth. My fellow blogger Sandy Sanders covered this story today here.

In 2008 the United States of America lost it’s collective mind and elected a Marxist, Socialist, Alinsky-ite for a president. It was hardly unexpected given that the press spent 8 years painting George W. Bush as the worst kind of demon imaginable. And to be sure, Bush did almost as much harm as Obama has […]

Democrat Terry McAuliffe is running for governor of Virginia. Again. If at first you don’t succeed …. But Virginians have been after him for months to know the truth about his failed GreenTec car company, his Tax Returns and why he refuses to debate Republican Candidate Ken Cuccinelli. You remember that Terry McAuliffe called Barack […]

Jamie Radtke came to the public eye as a leader in the TEA Party movement with the Richmond TEA Party. Her leadership was tremendous and her drive and enthusiasm for fiscal sanity was contagious.

What a week for the left wing haters in Henrico County, Virginia this past week. In a span of but 7 days the left wing “party of tolerance” vandalized a Campaign Bus belonging to the Mitt Romney Campaign, then the Henrico County Board of Supervisors voted to kick God out of the Board Meetings by […]

Last week I posted a rather scathing indictment of the Virginia TEA Party movement in general here and here concerning the aftermath of the Republican Primary in which a former TEA Party leader lost to the more mainstream Republican Candidate. There is no doubt that the TEA Party movement has lost some steam (and relevance) since […]

One of the most important measures of a political candidate is the people and groups that endorse that candidate. George Allen has picked up endorsements from the National Rifle Association, the American Conservative Union and a number of Congressmen and Senators. And word is, that list is about to grow some more. Later today, the […]

ROANOKE, VA – Republican Candidate for US Senate Bishop E.W.

Roanoke College has released a new poll of Virginians that shows the presumptive Republican Candidate for US Senate George Allen increasing his lead over Democrat Tim Kaine 45% to 37%. As always, I look at the numbers behind the polls to see if they pass my “believability” test, or if the results are skewed and […]

We hope not, but given the fact that Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell is often named on everyone’s short list for Vice President, and his strong support for Virginia’s anointed Republican candidate Mitt Romney, it is a question that is being raised often in Pro-life circles.

Paul Simon’s “Slip Slidin’ Away” is replacing Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop (Thinkin’ about Tomorrow)” in the Appropriate Theme Song category. The gloss and sheen has worn off of the Gold Plated Presidential Candidate as the reality of Barack Obama’s clueless administration sets in with American voters. The “Generic” Republican Candidate has been replaced by […]
